Kup, short for pickup has always been and still is one of my favorite Transformers. The best way to describe him is as a grandfather type character that loves telling old war stories. Unfortunaly poor Kup hasn't had a figure made of him since 86. . .
I took the Movie Dropkick figure and gave a vintage 50s'esk paintjob. I removed the head and used a Energon Towlines and repainted it as well. I then rearranged the legs so Kup would have slightly less buggy legs.
Since Kup is an old guy hes not in perfect shape and has definate signs of were. I used a mix of Burining gold and Scorched brown to make a rusting color and applied it liberaly to his chassy.
I love the last pic ! - Grimlock wants to hear the petro-rabbits story again !
"I'll give yuh petro-rabbits..."
